Banned. I got OWNED!!!
check for vacuum leaks with a can of starting fluid. IF it revs up while you spray it, youve found a leak.
IF you find none, it needs to be idled up. Adjust the idle up to around 800-900 and it should smooth out. Stock idle is 750, but some older engines with lower compressio need to be idled up a bit to keep a smooth idle.
